ATL VM question about exclusive pattern matching execution [message #982703]

I am facing problem of executing the ATL transformations in the way that I would like to execute them step by step, i.e. first to execute only pattern matching to see which rule is matched for which model element, and then to execute the rule I would like to be executed.

Could anyone here tell me if there is a way to control the execution of ATL VM?
Java api?

I will appreciate any help or comment.

Hello,

Unfortunatelly, executing just the matching phase of ATL is not possible. Matching and rule execution phases are not separated in the internal implementation of ATL (just the initialization (binding) phase is separated). Besides, there are no facilities in the VM for executing individual rules on given elements.

Best regards,

Salva
